Questions & Answers about بر خلاف کلیشهی مذکور، او مدیر بسیار ریسکپذیری است.
How does bar khalâf-e work in this sentence, and could I use moghâyer bâ instead?
bar khalâf-e means 'contrary to' or 'unlike' and connects directly to the noun phrase kilishe-ye mazkur using the ezâfe. You could substitute it with moghâyer bâ (moghâyer bâ kilishe-ye mazkur) with the exact same meaning, though bar khalâf-e is a bit more common in everyday speech.
Does the loanword kilishe mean 'cliché' or 'stereotype' here?
While it originates from the French word 'cliché', in modern Persian kilishe is the standard word for 'stereotype'. Combined with the formal word mazkur (aforementioned), kilishe-ye mazkur translates perfectly to 'the aforementioned stereotype'.
Why is the indefinite -i (a/an) placed at the very end of modir-e besyâr risk-pazir-i instead of on the noun modir?
In Persian, when a noun is modified by an adjective or a chain of adjectives, the indefinite marker -i often attaches to the very last word of the noun phrase. You could also say modir-i besyâr risk-pazir, but attaching it to the end of the whole cluster (risk-pazir-i) is very natural and common.
How is the word risk-pazir constructed?
It is a compound adjective combining the English loanword risk with pazir. The suffix -pazir comes from the present stem of the verb paziroftan (to accept). So, a risk-pazir person is literally someone who is 'risk-accepting' (risk-taking).
